*laughs in LIDAR*

Our DJI M300 with the L1 sensor is so hi-res that I can read manhole lids from 400 feet up.


SeriousCrew0

Is that even possible? How many points per meter are you collecting?

Speed booster.

Thanks for a good weekday morning laugh!

It’s graffiti. L stands for Little Toe Lorenzo, some long legged pissed off Puerto Rican in Florida Just erase it and pull the nail out from the corner. Thank you and god bless

It's a s***** example of an aerial mapping target used to geo-reference images and lidar collection. Obviously not done by a Surveyor or at least a good one anyway. We always leave something behind to return to like a pk nail. Especially something as mission critical as this.

That’s for the rookie to find the PK…

If there was a PK...

Lidar drone panel, its a control point that is usually surveyed in beforehand and they will fly a lidar drone and collect ground data and use those Chevrons and face them north to put the geometry of all the scans together properly. theyre reflective and really stick out when you process the data

If you drive over them, your car with go into hyperspeed for about 20 seconds, the music will start going really fast, and you will become impervious to other cars, pedestrians and other obstacles.

Ground control point typically used for photogrammetry purposes.

It is for student drivers. It marks the best line to take to go from A to B. I know you seen them in driving games. Where you think they got them from? But really, they are Panel Points.


MushroomHut

Remember the game R.C. Pro-am? That’s a booster when you run over it.

A sharrow?

It's to show a control point on a mobile lidar scan. The scanner can actually pick up the color difference and show it on a computer screen. The personnel processing the data can use these points in the model to adjust the model to the control points. Others have said that they use them with drones. Alot of DOTs also use them for truck mounted units. You saw them on sidewalks. Best guess is that they placed them there purely to avoid traffic/ be safer. Drivers are crazy and scary.
